I wen't to my warehouse to see if I could scrounge up some antique

looked and yep, flat tire. Good looking tires on it too, but...

I haven't investigated why it went flat, but I'll probably get a new
tire anyhow.

But I just did some thinking that when I pull the tire it's a good
time to check wheel berings. I haven't done that in a couple years
because I only went out on the boat a couple times. But I figure that
being dunked twice, no... three times and sitting the rest, there
still could have been some water get in the seals and something might
be starting to rust.


Sounds like a good saturday project.

Good idea. If the bead didn't break you may be able to pump up the
tire. Think you said you had good air.
Be careful jacking it if you leave it flat.
Lots can go wrong. But you know that.
